Can I get some fuckin uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh Jack Cliff comforting da s/o after getting a bad nightmare/night terror? And also Postal Dude for the same prompt because that juxtaposition is funny as fuck
Absolutely! And yes, the juxtaposition is funny.
Jack Cliff
When you wake him up in a cold sweat, he can immediately feel the terror in you.
His arms are quickly wrapped around you as he scans the room for a threat, if he finds anything that made you that afraid- he's going to destroy it.
Once realizing it was a nightmare, his words are gentle and soft, he understands nightmares are.. well, fucking scary sometimes.
No matter how irrational, hes still going to hold you in his arms until you fall asleep once more.
He stays awake for the rest of the night, wanting to make sure you aren't gonna wake up to him asleep next to you. He wants you to wake up and immediately realize- you're safe.
He wants to be the one you come to when you're afraid, he wants to comfort you when you need it. He feels that it's one of the only things he's good for nowadays anyways.
Eventually he does pass tf out though and you're stuck in this giants arms.
Postal Dude
Hes confused. Very, very confused.
Chances are he's awake anyways, and when he sees you start to flail around- he kinda shakes you. If that's not enough, he backs off.
"Hey, Y/N, you having a fucking stroke?"
When you do wake up, hes asking what the hell happened.
"You had me worried yknow." (Not really, moreso scared you were about to be the star in the next exorcist movie.)
Dude is not good at comforting people, and he doesn't understand that kind of fear. He hasn't been afraid like that since he was a child.
Hes probably gonna give you one of his guns, thinking that'll be enough to get you to calm down.
If that's not enough and you tell him you need him to stay with you, he begrudgingly agrees.
Hes not very comfortable, but if it keeps you calm and stops that same thing from happening again- he doesn't really care.
Passes out again almost immediately, if you had another nightmare good luck tryna wake him up for comfort he's passed the fuck out and not coming to until noon.
